Your Journey Through The Course

Module 1:
Introduction

In this module we are having look into all the basic things you need to know in order to create cool sci-fi sounds on your own. You will learn useful information around software and plugins you need, the mindset and acting skills to form sounds by your own mouth that you can process further, some basic sample editing knowledge and most importantly: FM synthesis basics.

We will explore topics such as:

  • The recommended tools and software for sci-fi sound design
  • The importance of the human part of sound design, and using your voice as a powerful source
  • Frequency Modulation Synthesis basics

Module 2:
Creature Sounds

Making creature sounds is a very in-depth process because the options of these sounds are virtually endless, the only limit is your imagination. We will therefore reveal and present a wide range of techniques and workflows in this module. We will make dragon, zombie, small creature, big creature birds, aliens and lots of animal sounds. It’s a very exciting topic!

We cover topics such as: 

  • Audio Rate Modulation
  • The best industry software and how to replace them with free or native software if you want to
  • Turning animal sounds into creature sounds
  • Powerful layering techniques
  • Creative workflows for new, never heard before sounds
  • Creating sounds from a range of monsters, zombies, dragons, and other creatures.

Module 3:
Robot Sounds

From Star Wars to Transformers, the sound of robots is commonly used in video games and movies. 
However, robot sounds are slightly overlooked as a topic because they can often be really boring by using only old school techniques. This is why we split up this module to two videos overall: modern robot sounds and old school, classic robot sounds. The main goal of this topic is to take human voice and turn them into any sort of robotic, futuristic sounds like for example from Transformers.

We cover the following topics: 

  • Effects that are used in the past a lot to create robot sounds
  • Modern approaches to create even more exciting results (including Transformers sounds!)

Module 4:
Sci Fi Sounds

This is a really broad topic with a lot of different sounds involving a range of techniques, some as basic as simply filtering white noise and small FM synthesis bleeps. This is a very exciting topic with lots of endless possibilities. We’ll be creating vehicle sounds, drones, gun shots, explosions, vehicles and aircrafts passing over or landing, and sound effects that all needs some creativity and thinking out of the box.

In this module you will see: 

  • A deeper look into Frequency Modulation techniques
  • Creating complex sounds out of simple sounds like white noise
  • Advanced reverberation and filtering techniques for huge and monstrous results (these are powerful)
  • Being creative with samplers for more advanced and unique results from samples you already own
